Rainforest Animals Bingo

Rainforest Animals Bingo plus printables for preschool. This is a fun way to teach preschoolers the names of some animals that live in the Rainforest biome/habitat, or to follow up or review a lesson.

This resource is FREE to MEMBERS in the membership area on the Rainforest theme page.

2 ways to play:• Classic bingo game (group) – each child has a board, caller picks up tiles and calls the picture, children cover picture with a counter or similar. The emphasis is on picture recognition, and spoken vocabulary, not written words.• Matching game (individual): children match set of tiles to one or more boards.

Extra activities:• 3 printables: children dictate a “story” and draw a picture. “This is an animal that lives in the rainforest”, “I like this animal that lives in the rainforest because…”, and “This is a big rainforest animal/This is a small rainforest animal”.• Group activity – predictable sentences. Teacher asks for suggestions from the group about the theme being discussed, and writes them down in a “predictable” list. The list can be “read” on subsequent days, with the repeated sentence beginnings giving a clue.
